Leaf spring torque specs

[soopertruper]

Can anyone help me out with the torque specs for leaf springs and shackles on an 84 s10. I ordered a hanes manual, but the parts store won\'t have it until saturday. Thanks

they just need to be tight i have never seen an actual tq spec for that bolt/nut.

all i have ever done is get them tight enough to keep in place.

my shop manual says i THINK either 75 or 90 ft. lb\'s. shoot for 80 and you\'ll be golden. http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif
